[OpenIndiana-discuss] File system size (just for laughs)

[Jonathan Adams]

Someone came to me with a USB stick that they were having trouble reading,
and asked if I could look at it.

I plugged it in and typed "format -e":

root at jadlaptop:/var/log# format -e

I think we have a contender for the biggest USB stick in existence!
